Pharos lighthouse –

This poem was inspired by the Pharos Lighthouse of Alexandria—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the first beacon to guide ships through darkness. But Pharos was more than stone and fire. It held human stories: of longing, of waiting, of light that tried to reach the forgotten. This poem blends the legacy of Pharos with the belief that every lighthouse has a heart.

Pharos – The Story Beneath the Stone

Pharos was not just a lighthouse—

it was a heart that kept glowing

long after its stones had fallen.

Each level held a story,

each beam a message

that never reached its waiting soul.

It guided ships, yes—

but it also guided spirits

lost in a sea without shore.

Pharos was not built of stone alone,

but of sailors’ tears

and names written on waves.

I’m not writing about a structure—

I’m writing about a light

that longed to love,

and became a wonder.
